Burberry is reportedly looking to appoint a senior manager at the British fashion house to support its creative director and CEO Christopher Bailey, who has lead both the creative and the business sides of the brand since the departure of former CEO Angela Ahrendts in 2013 HTTP://www.vogue.co.uk/news/2016/05/06/burberry-senior-manager-appointment-support-christopher-bailey

Heading south again this week by the look of it. That 1100p chart support had better hold or it`s a very long way down. edit: It`s China again .

[philanderer] 26/4/2016 15:31

Chart support at 1180p then a long way down to 1109p. Testing the first one soon by the look of things.

[philanderer] 25/4/2016 23:33

Yep, patience required here now.

[lightningbolt] 22/4/2016 10:32

looks like we're going to drift lower, still long, and looking to add to my position.

Thanks for the reply tongosti , I was thinking maybe LVMH ? Interesting Lex column in the Financial Times...

Phil - tempting as it may sound, the question is who may want to buy BRBY at this stage? I think for a company that generates a significant part of its business from China, any potential bidder would have to be confident it can meaningfully improve performance in that part of the world. In view of the fact that the luxury sector is struggling en masse in China, a potential bid is unlikely I think (naturally, I could be completely wrong here because in a world of record low yields, money needs to be deployed somewhere and the big boys are naturally attracted to M&A's). I would also say that - even though valuations look deceptively cheaper - as opposed to a year ago - what particularly worries me is the slowing rate sales growth. It has been going down for a good while and the situation does not seem likely to improve in the near future. As you know, I am watching closely here with the view to go long at some point. I think that point will arrive when most brokers will issue sell - rather than buy - recommendations. The proverbial throw in the towel moment. I don't think we are there yet so today I decided to open a short with a stop loss at £15. Have a good evening.

I`m tempted back in, just get a feeling there could be a takeover approach.

[lightningbolt] 14/4/2016 19:18

Well I'm still long, a pe of 16 is pretty cheap...

Hi tongosti , any thoughts on a takeover here now . Bailey seems to be struggling trying to hold down two jobs.

[tongosti] 14/4/2016 12:44

As I have mentioned here several times, BRBY is best avoided or shorted (for the braver ones). Going long is not an option at this stage.
